- - learning and communication strategies In his 1972 paper “Interlanguage” [International Review of Applied Linguistics. 10: 209-231] and has developed each concept carefully over the years. In 1969, for example, he conducted one of the first empirical studies in "language transfer" research. [General Linguistics 9: 67-92]. The “Interlanguage” paper has been reprinted ten times in several languages.
